What if?

What if all the rain drops
Were just teardrops that we've shed?
What if every dust storm
Was an embodiment of those in our heads?

What if every thunder
Was the echo of one's private laugh.
What if every solar flare
Was born of an angry spark?

What if every breeze
Was just a whisper shared?
What if every new moon
Was, of all the first kisses, made?

What if our smiles
Were what powered the Sun?
What if all the stars
Were heroes that went unsung?

What if every 'once upon a time'
Started a new epoch?
What if every inferno
Was fueled by screeching amok?

What if every dark thought
Resulted in a new dead leaf?
What if every hail that struck
Was made of heartache and grief?

What if every baby's cry
Was what birthed each lightning?
What if the chafing of a worker's hands
Engendered the marks on moon's skin?

What if every whirlpool
Was because of a dancer that twirled?
What,then, if even a single thought
Could change the way of the world?
